A local businessman’s driving ambition – to
provide Cayman with its own purpose built motorsports park – is still
right on track. And Robert Campbell’s dream of having the
motor and family recreation park at Breakers in full operation in two
years time is expected to move one step nearer this summer. His current goal is to get the drag strip on
the 65–acre site usable by some time in September.

Despite the ever– increasing total costs, which
he says could now rise to more than $10 million, Mr. Campbell might
almost be said to have a one track mind when it comes to his
determination to get the job done. “It’s like ants building an anthill. Sometimes
it’s one grain at a time. But I am determined to get it done,” he
said. Work on the park – which will include a 1.2
mile road course and a 6,000–seat, covered grandstand – had recently
almost stalled after being hampered by lack of funds.

Mr. Campbell said he is always open to talking
to serious investors or anyone else who can help. But he added that so far it is basically his
own money, equipment and time that have enabled the project to go
ahead. The park will one day have facilities for all
kinds of motorsports, testing and training. “The complex has the ability to house six to
eight different motoring activities at the same time and have other
family activities,” said Mr. Campbell.

For more than the last three years there has
been no motor racing on a purpose built track in Cayman, he said. “Motorsports enthusiasts are eager to have the
facility which will be completely safe, marshalled and supervised,” he
said.“The island definitely needs this facility. “We are crying out for a place for youngsters
to experience and enjoy the excitement of motoring, and that’s not
just speed. We will have special skill courses where a good amount of
skills are required,” he added.

“I have been very concerned about the high
rates of accidents on the roads. Youngsters need somewhere safe to let
off steam and become better drivers,” said Mr. Campbell. “I strongly believe it will assist in the
conduct and standards of our youth,” he said. “There will be a lot of
training provided, training by experienced local drivers and
international drivers who will visit,” he added. “People don’t realise
the work that has gone into the scheme already. And they don’t realise
the work that’s involved in building it to the right standard,” said
Mr. Campbell.

“It’s being built to international standards
so we can attract international class events,” he said. “The main
thing is we want to give our youngsters a safe, controlled environment
to enjoy motorsports, and that’s still my main focus.”
